A Victoria-based Aussie artist working from my Geelong studio alongside my assistant Wally who stares at me incessantly for another walk and insists on bringing his bone to work.
I’m qualified in Fine Art and when I’m not building canvases, painting on them, or teaching others to do so, I work managing an art supplies company.
Founded in 2015, OTS was born when we were stuck searching for a good quality round canvas for our own artwork, so we decided to make them ourselves
Each Canvases sides are neatly stretched with limited puckering. The back of the canvas features tidy folds and two rows of staples. The unique stretcher is professionally bevelled.
Every size in the range has been strength tested to withstand significant weight/pressure. The 25mm deep MDF stretcher also adds to the stability and warp resistance of the canvases.
All OTS canvases are hand stretched with a focus on tautness and neatness. Every size in the range is stretched with even tension to avoid any chance of loosening or slack.
All of our canvases are hand made in our Geelong workshop. The level of craftsmanship and attention that goes into producing each and every canvas is high, setting us apart from many mass produced canvas brands.
Since 2015 we have been serving artists all around Australia – being based in Geelong, Victoria means we can service Melbourne and the rest of the state with relatively fast delivery. We will ship just about anywhere, whether you’re in Queensland, Tasmania, New South Wales, Western Australia or South Australia we can get our canvases delivered to your door.
Outside The Square Canvas produces high quality blank round canvas and Stretched Canvas and Float Frame Packs for Artists. All Outside The Square Circle Canvases and Square Canvas are hand stretched in Geelong Victoria, and delivered Australia Wide.
Our Custom Round Canvases are delivered to Artists and Painters of every level who are looking to experiment with a different format of canvas. Our Large Round Canvas sizes are made with 25mm thick high quality medium density fibreboard, featuring a deep bevelled edge on the circular stretcher to ensure a professional quality finish.
While the inferior mass produced Round Canvases are poorly stretched with messy edges and sub-standard stretchers which warp – Outside The Square Round Artists Canvases are made to last – and are hand stretched by Artists with professional Artists in mind.
Unlike other brands, Our Canvas has been developed by skilled craftsman and Artists to be the best quality Round Canvas in Australia.
Our readymade Stretched Canvas and Float Frame packs are made to order using high quality picture framing materials. The canvas stretcher is made from triple kiln dried, finger jointed pine making them extremely stable substrates for painting. The stretcher is 35mm deep.
Our floater frames are made with 100% Australian grown oak, this timber is earthy, authentic and on trend. Each frame is made to fit the accompanying canvas with an approximately 5mm float gap between the canvas and frame.
Buying our pre-made Canvas and floating frames saves you time and multiple trips to the picture framer.
